Book is a hand selected book of 63 positions from Kai’s 3 move opening booking about ~2000 3 movers . Hand selected for positions that have a lesser tendency for draws. It tends to overstate differences between two engines as compared to most opening suites that have more drawing lines. I call this book magic63.epd.

Crafty 4CPU is rated 3056 is the CCRl 40/4, so this would be a performance rating of about 3044. Deep Junior 4CPU is rated 3026, so it appears that would be a good opponent as well. May kick that one off Sunday night (EST), look for a new thread posted.
